  • baseview

    low-level window system interface for audio plugin UIs

  • vst-rs

    Discontinued VST 2.4 API implementation in rust. Create plugins or hosts. Previously rust-vst on the RustDSP group.

    VST2 bindings exist (https://github.com/RustAudio/vst-rs) but the VST3 and AU situation is rougher around the edges. There is work being done on abstracting over different plugin standards and easing parameter handling, notably https://github.com/wrl/baseplug and https://github.com/robbert-vdh/nih-plug, but nothing completely stable yet.

    MVC audio plugin framework for rust
